When investing in wardrobe staples, I always look for details: buttons on jackets, zippers on pants, buckles on shoes, pockets on plain tees, sleeve length of a sweater… those are what make all the difference. As you can see from today’s featured looks above of Rosie Huntington-Whiteley: the pieces and colors on her are very simple, it’s the details and accessories make her outfits chic and fashionable.

Black blazer is definitely a must-have for everyone. This season, go for double-breasted version, extra bonus for those with exaggerated shoulders and nipped-in waist. As for the jumper? Cropped length is the way to go, as seen on SS2014 runways, this trend won’t go anywhere soon.

Isabel Marant is the “Chanel” for me. I’m obsessed with everything she designed, besides the beloved Caleen booties, this pair on Rosie Huntington-Whiteley is edgy, sexy yet practical with the leather straps, pointy toe and easy walk heels. Combined with an It bag and fabulous sunglasses, these outfits can take you from the office to dinner.

在投资衣橱必备的基本单品时，我总是会找那些有细节设计的：外套上的纽扣，裤子上的拉链，鞋子上的搭环，T恤上的小口袋或毛衣袖子的长度等等都会在搭配时让整体更出彩。就像我们在Rosie Huntington-Whiteley的这两个造型中所看到的：她所选的单品和颜色都非常简单，但正是小细节及她所用的配饰使整个look简约而不简单，低调又彰显时尚品味。

黑色的西装外套是必备单品，这一季要投资的话，选择双排扣，有点垫肩而且略收腰的款式。至于秋冬我们都会屯的毛衣，短款是大热的版型，从刚结束的2014春夏时装周看来，这种潮流明年还会持续。

至于鞋款，每一双来自Isabel Marant的设计我都非常喜欢，除了极受追捧的Caleen铆钉踝靴外，Rosie Huntington-Whiteley所穿的这双也很值得投资，与Caleen的休闲感不同，尖头的设计，不同皮革的拼接和抢眼的搭环让这双踝靴个性中又不失女人味。配上经典的设计师包款，这些Look对于约会、出行、和朋友的聚餐以及不要求正式着装的办公室场合等都非常适合。

Monochrome Chic: Combine Classic with Modern

how to style a leather dress, how to wear cut outs, how to wear See-Through Clothing, black and white, Olivia Palermo, fashion week, street style, front row, On Olivia Palermo: Tibi Nelio Mesh Sleeve Top, Tibi Transit Yoked Skirt, Tortoise Wayfarer by Ray-Ban, Delvaux Tempête MM bag, Christian Louboutin strappy sandal, embellished belt; On Olivia Palermo: Catherine Malandrino for Kohl’s Laser-Cut Shift Dress, Christian Dior Spring 2013 Mary Jane Pumps,Westward Leaning Louisiana Purchase sunglasses, and BCBG Max Azria Whip Stitch Belt; Photos: Olivia Palermo; Courtesy of oliviapalermo.com, startraksphoto.com.

Olivia Palermo has been wearing a lot of black and white pieces lately, my favorites are these two looks above. With intricate details, dynamic patterns and a pop of brights, she gave the simple black and white a reinterpretation, making this classic combo bold, delicate and fashion-forward.

For her first outfit (above left), black and white, stripes, see-through trends blend together harmoniously thanks to the simple color palette and classic silhouette. As always, details and accessories make a big difference, as showed in her second outfit above: with the delicate laser cut out, well-thought printed clutch, sophisticated Mary Jane pump, and subtle yellow & purple color block, it’s hard to believe that her dress is only a $66 piece from kohl’s!

这一季的时装周期间常看到时尚偶像Olivia Palermo穿黑白色的单品。我最喜欢的是上面的这两个造型，精美繁复的镂空细节，动态变化的条纹图案以及恰到好处的亮色点缀重新演绎了原本是极简代名词的黑与白。

她的第一个look把今年大热的透视、条纹及黑白等几个流行趋势融合地不着痕迹，技巧在于保持整体色调干净，而且每件单品的剪裁和线条也很简洁。第二个look里的这条镂空的皮裙我已经等了好久，是Catherine Malandrino为Kohl‘s设计的系列里我最喜欢的一件。简单的线条，硬朗皮革和蕾丝般精美的雕花所形成的冲突感已经让人很难相信它这么平价，只有$66！再配上优雅的玛丽珍包鞋和抢眼又有复古风情的黄色手包，瞬间就像漫步在巴黎街头的名媛。
